If you're an urban sketcher, or care to sketch the place you live, @urbansketchers.bsky.social has a new calendar of daily prompts for you! Follow their profile for more.

I've added ALT text to it in the comments section of the #BlueSkyArtShowsss list pinned to my page for those who need it.
August Prompts are here! 📣
This month is particularly special, because it is when the USk International Symposium will be held in Poznan! but you don’t need to be at the Symposium to follow the prompts you can do them from anywhere! 🎨🖌️
